Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 985: Chapter 399: Vicious Secret Technique, Forerunner to the King_2

Chu Kui didn’t elaborate much, perhaps even his own understanding wasn’t that profound.

He merely conveyed the descriptions from the Bead Curtain Lock secret technique as he understood them.

”Therefore, the creator of this secret technique, under the lofty perspective and insight, proposed the concept of first achieving the characteristics of a Golden Core, then forming the Golden Core.”

”If one could transform a portion of their Qi Power in advance, then condensing the Golden Core later would naturally become much easier.”

Luo Chen pondered thoughtfully.

Could it indeed be the case?

Rather than awaiting a complete transformation to achieve a Golden Core,

it would be better to first possess some of the characteristics of a Golden Core Cultivator, then reverse-engineer the process of Core Formation, so doing would be twice the result with half the effort.

And Qi Power...

Luo Chen sipped his Spirit Wine and theorized, ”Could it be the fusion of the Divine Soul into the Spirit Power? But previously, many Foundation Establishment True Cultivators, including you and I, have tried, and it’s simply not feasible to achieve on a large scale. And even if it’s achieved on a small scale, it’s difficult to maintain for long.”

Chu Kui nodded, ”Exactly!”

However, he immediately refuted this idea, ”We can’t do it, but in the eyes of the higher-ups, there are ways to accomplish it.”

”The Bead Curtain Lock secret technique?” Luo Chen raised his eyebrows.

”Precisely!” Chu Kui’s face showed a look of melancholy, ”In this secret technique, it mentions dividing the Divine Soul, extending divine soul threads, and linking them with the liquefied Spirit Power. In this manner, each drop of extremely compressed and pure Spirit Liquid, once linked, can be regarded as a drop of Qi Power! Finally, when condensing the Golden Core, the main Divine Soul will oversee and merge all the Spirit Liquid together. By doing so, the Golden Core is formed!”

Crack!

The wine cup shattered!

Luo Chen, who hadn’t yet fully mastered control over his powerful body, slightly lost his composure.

But this also showed how shocked he was by the idea.

Dividing the Divine Soul, forming soul threads, linking the Spirit Liquid, shaping Spirit Beads that possess some characteristics of Qi Power, and ultimately owing to the Divine Soul being the tether, merging them effortlessly.

By then, the way of the Golden Pill would be within reach!

Seeing Luo Chen’s shock, Chu Kui bitterly smiled, ”A grand conception, isn’t it?”

”It certainly is!” Luo Chen swallowed, marveling, ”I don’t know which master came up with this concept, but I can imagine if all the Spirit Liquid were influenced and led by the Divine Soul, how effortlessly the Golden Core would form.”

Bead Curtain Lock! Truly an apt and fitting name!

The Divine Soul locks the Bead Curtain, and in one fell swoop, achieves the Golden Core!

Chu Kui said somberly, ”It’s not just an idea; even the methods of operation are written out. How to divide the Divine Soul, how to link them, and in the end, how to merge them, are all clearly described. The Luo Yun Sect hasn’t held back, this is indeed a complete Great Technique of Pill Formation secret art!”

Listening to this somber tone, Luo Chen, aside from being shocked, also became curious.

Why did Chu Kui seem somewhat unhappy?

If the Great Technique is ahead, the Great Dao is foreseeable, so why the sorrow?

Suddenly, he realized the crux of the issue.

Dividing the Divine Soul!

His expression changed dramatically, ”How can the Divine Soul be divided? Are they madmen? The Divine Soul is paramount for us Qi Refiners, how can it simply be divided?”

All things possess a spirit, and with life, comes a soul.

Upon stepping into the path of cultivation, one develops Spirit Consciousness.

Initially, the Spirit Consciousness in Qi Refinement stage resides within the Sea of Consciousness and cannot leave. Once Foundation Establishment is achieved, Spirit Consciousness can leave the body, illuminating the area for several miles. If one is fortunate enough to achieve the way of the Golden Pill, it is possible to transform Divine Consciousness to reflect upon the heavens and earth.

It’s said that the subsequent stages, Golden Core Transformation to Infant and Nascent Spirit to Spirit Divine Transformation, are not changes in Spirit Power but rather higher-level transformations of the Divine Soul.

One could say that the Divine Soul is the true foundation within a cultivator!

Luo Chen had enjoyed many benefits from a powerful Divine Soul on his journey thus far.

During the Qi Refinement stage, he overcame the Heart’s Test, consumed the Tongyou Pill, all of which continuously strengthened his Divine Soul. Because his Divine Soul was powerful, he could refine Elixirs more times daily, practice his Natal Qi Technique more frequently, and even during battle, he could wield one or two more Magic Tools than others.

Apparently, the importance of the Divine Soul is far greater than that of the body and Spirit Power.

Luo Chen dared only to nourish it diligently; how could he dare to cut into his Divine Soul?

”No wonder you said this technique is malicious!”

Apart from being shocked, Luo Chen now understood the remark Chu Kui had made at the beginning.

Chu Kui also sighed deeply, ”Indeed, we cultivators only worry that our Divine Souls are not strong enough, who would dare weaken them through division.”

Upon dividing, the Divine Soul naturally becomes weaker and fragmented.

The consequences are also extremely serious.

During battle, one will be unable to pay attention to other matters. When cultivating, there is an increased risk of demonic deviation, and controlling the massive Spirit Power within the body would become increasingly difficult.

One careless moment, if Spirit Power becomes unbalanced, the Sea of Qi disturbed, the consequences are unimaginable!

Luo Chen couldn’t help but inquire, ”If it’s a Great Technique secret art, surely there won’t be such flaws, does the secret art include methods to supplement and heal?”

”There aren’t!”

”Has the Luo Yun Sect concealed something?”

”As I’ve said before, it indeed is a complete Great Technique secret art; at least from my perspective, there are no omissions or deletions.”

At this point, both fell into silence.

Luo Chen looked at the woeful Chu Kui and could roughly understand his feelings.

After a while. he shook his head and said, ”Perhaps, it’s not about withholding or deleting, but that this secret technique inherently requires other accompanying Cultivation Techniques.”

He said so, naturally because it had to do with the set of Cultivation Techniques he had recently created himself.

”The Flow of All Things” could actually be considered a comprehensive set of Body Refinement secret techniques.

”Sky Roc Transformation” served as the framework. However, its specific cultivation practices were divided into great detail.

Such as Origin of Qi, Ming God’s Divine Cleanse, Blood Evil Channel Opening, Thunderbolt Enlightenment, and so on.
